[Stephens County Courthouse in Breckenridge, TX]
Photograph of Stephens County Courthouse in Breckenridge, TX. A red brick road runs horizontally across the bottom of the photo while a sidewalk sits next to it, farther into the photo. A tall metal pole sits on the sidewalk near the left side of the image while two parking meters stand on either side of a short orange object with an upward-sloping top. The sidewalk connects to a walkway that cuts through the green grass surrounding the white courthouse, in which multiple tall bushy trees grow. A tall metal cross made up by two poles sits in the center of the walkway. The entrance to the courthouse has a short set of stairs leading up to three archways with dark doors in them. A row of dark windows extends from either side of the archways. Above this first floor of the courthouse are two more rows of windows set into white frames and divides vertically by white columns that rise across both rows, holding up a long pediment with the partially visible words "And peace administered alike" written on it. Above the pediment is a fourth row of windows positioned just under the edge of the building' s flat roof.
